About This File

This is the NSD "Gatling Gun" weapon as seen on the trailers for the 2022 New Year's episode "Eve of the Daleks".
This 3D model was made before the episode aired, so the scren shots were very limited.  It looks accurate to my eye, however more details may become apparent once we get to see the entire episode.
I used Fusion360 to create this model.  It's split into multiple parts for ease of printing.

You will need to provide a 25.4mm (1 inch) diameter pipe for the arm, and also mount a suitable 102mm (4 inch) ball-joint.  I always use magic 8-ball toys for my ball joint.
The eight small pipes coming out of the rear of the gun part are 6mm diameter.  You can either print them from my files, or optionally use stainless steel drinking straws, cut to length.

I did include an internal gear in the main body of the gun, and an additional pinion gear in case somebody wants to motorize the rotation of the weapon.  I haven't had time to figure that out yet.

Wow nice work - you don't mess around do you !! Thanks for sharing the files. I think to "pull" this off well the trick will be to get the light & sound nicely co-ordinated with the gun spin (perhaps with a little over run as the gun slows). Thank again for sharing - Happy new year.

Response from the author:

Thanks very much! I’m quite happy with the result.
I’m still undecided as to where I can install the motor to get this thing spinning. The lights should be pretty simple, but will need some kind of slip ring to prevent wires getting twisted.

Downloaded the files and they printed nicely. Now have a bunch of stainless steel drinking straws to cut down next. Not sure yet if I'm going to try make it spin or just go with it lighting up.  At least the files have the gears built in. Let's get creative! 

 

Thanks for sharing the files. 

 

 

Response from the author:

I’m happy to know the files printed well for you!  Thanks for the feedback.  Would love to see your results when they are complete!

 

I’m way behind on updating my build diary. I really must get on that!
